main menu entries and artwork

[iceman1981]

I am trying to use hyperspin a bit unorthodox.  I want to create a simple mortal kombat wheel.  So far i have  5 games that launch from the main wheel, and removed all the default(mame, nes, sega, etc)

 

here is my hyperspin>databases>main menu> main menu.xml

 

<menu>
  <game name="Mortal Kombat" exe="true"/>
  <game name="Mortal Kombat II" exe="true"/>
  <game name="Mortal Kombat 3" exe="true"/>
  <game name="Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3" exe="true"/>
  <game name="Mortal Kombat 4" exe="true"/>
</menu>

 

if i go into hyperHQ wheel settings, all the sub tabs say "this tab does not apply to executable only Main Menu items"

 

is there any way to fix this? or do i have to make a main menu and sub menu with all the games??

 

just to be clear this is working, just need to know how to get wheel art/videos to work.

replace exe="true" by exe="false" (exe="true" is for pc games, or standalone program like jukebox, fightcade etc...)

 

then use mame as default emulator for your wheel (set it with rocketlauncher, it's easy)

 

i made some wheels for epic games saga like:

 

- Street fighter

- Mortal Combat

- Megaman

- castlevania

 

etc etc

 

My main menu wheel is like

 

<menu>

  <game name="FightCade" exe="true" />          <- for online arcade

  <game name="Jukebox" exe="true" />             <-just for music

  <game name="Mortal Kombat Saga" />

  <game name="Megaman Saga" />

  <game name="Metroid Saga" />

  <game name="Mario Bros Saga" />

  <game name="Castlevania Saga" />

  <game name="Street Fighter Saga" />

<menu>

 

Subwheel for each "saga" entry, inside the subwheel all the games

 

 

It's not what you want to do but very close to it.

if you're launching them from the main menu then all the artwork will be handled from the MAIN MENU (themes/wheel/video) folder in the media folder. You need to put the wheel art in there as well as the videos.

if the game is MORTAL KOMBAT on your main menu wheel... then inside your media folder (MAIN MENU) there needs to be a wheel named MORTAL KOMBAT in the wheel folder (as well as a video named MORTAL KOMBAT in the video folder... same for themes)
